Waterloo

Send

This weekend's Eurovision Song Contest was a pretty sad affair, so, after the disappointments of Malmö, Steyn's Song of the Week recalls happier times both for Sweden and Eurovision, and celebrates the former's greatest contribution to the latter - a history lesson from Abba:

My my!
At Waterloo Napoleon did surrender
Oh yeah!
And I have met my destiny in quite a similar way…

~and don't forget some of Mark's most popular Song of the Week essays are anthologized in his book A Song For The Season, including "Auld Lang Syne", "My Funny Valentine" and "White Christmas" plus "Delilah", "Rock-A-Hula Baby" and the "Monster Mash". You can order your personally autographed copy exclusively from the SteynOnline bookstore.

For almost four decades, he'd been a nightly fixture doing terrific interviews with everyone from Mrs Thatcher to Barack Obama.

So the good news is that Milt is now back doing what he does best via a new podcast - "The Milt Rosenberg Show". And Mark is especially honored to be the first guest on the brand new show.
